 * Version 1.2.2 introduces some changes that cause fatal PHP errors due to files
   missing from the plugin.
 * The main plugin file `canva.php` now has two new `require_once()` calls that 
   reference files that do not exist: `/inc/canvaDatabase.php` and `/inc/canvaDatabaseTableDisplay.
   php`

 * Just updated the version of Canva plugin to version 1.2.2 and my site is down
   due to the fatal error below. How do I correct it?

 * Our site also gets the fatal error. We are in the process of restoring the previous
   version.

 * If your site is broken by this update:
    1. Download a previous versioon here: [https://wordpress.org/plugins/canva/developers/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/canva/developers/)
    2. Unzip the plugin to your local file system
    3. Connect to your site via FTP
    4. Navigate to the plugins folder, typically `wp-content/plugins/`
    5. Upload the `canva` folder from your local file system to the server (note upload
       the folder itself, which will include all of the files)

 * The latest download of Canva plugin does still not work.
    When you got the error,
   please start a FTP session to your website. Goto wp-content/plugins Delete the
   Canva plugin Refresh your website
 * It’s a little bit odd there is no supportpage for this plug-in at canva.com

 * I corrected the error via FTP, re installing the previous version.
 * I also contacted Canva via facebook, they answered my first message but then 
   no further messages or solution for the issue.
 * It is very frustrating… Canve is not giving much attention to it…

 * Hi everyone,
 * We apologise for the problems you’ve encountered. We are working on getting a
   new version of the plugin out very soon.
 * Cheers,

 * Hi Brendan,
    Nice of you guys to answer allthough this problem is detected about
   2 weeks ago and I could not find any contact email from developers of the Canva
   plug-in to aware them about this issue. So it seems this support blog is the 
   only way to send the message. I see in the changelog of the plug-in : 1.2.3 Bugfix:
   missing files, but it’s still the buggy version 1.2.2 which is available. Can
   you remove that version or prevent download of it, to prevent more users having
   issues about this version?

 * Current version has been updated at 1.2.4.
 * Once again, apologies.
 * Let us know if you have any further issues or questions.
